These difficulties highlight the need forinnovative teaching approaches that help students overcome the barriers to understanding thesetransformative ideas. Once students grasp threshold concepts, they are able to integrate separatepieces of knowledge into a cohesive understanding, which is essential for solving the kinds ofcomplex problems encountered in real-world structural engineering [2].II.

development of problem solving skills, research suggests that creativity can be animportant factor influencing the solving of such problems. Goodman and Frezza [4] explain therelationship between ill-structured problems and creativity as “ill-structured problems inherentlyrequire creative exploration by those charged with their understanding and solution, and thisimplies more than one right answer.” This paper thus focuses on the impact of creativity in thisprocess through the lens of undergraduate engineering students. It is generally agreed upon that the teaching of ill-structured problems in the STEMcurriculum is important. However, more research is needed to understand students’ creativity as apart of this process, as students are those
